Une série de tests reproductible avec un lecteur d'écran

Random poking finds random bugs. A repeatable test pass runs the same checks every time so nothing important slips through. 📋

Begin every pass by reading the page from the top. Confirm the page title and first heading announce what the page actually is.

Pull up the headings list and check the outline makes sense by ear. Levels should flow in order with no confusing jumps.

Jump through landmarks next. You should hear a clear banner, navigation, main, and footer so users can reach each region directly.

Now Tab from the top. Every interactive control should take focus in a logical order, and each should announce a clear name and role.

Listen as you reach images. Meaningful ones should read a useful alt text, and decorative ones should stay silent.

Do not just read controls, use them. Activate every button and link by keyboard and confirm the result is announced.

Enter focus mode and complete any form. Each field needs a spoken label, and errors must read out so users can fix them.

Cause something to change, like a toast or a loaded result. A good page announces updates without the user hunting for them.

Capture each issue as you go. A short note of what you heard versus what you expected turns a pass into actionable bugs.

The power is in consistency. Run this exact checklist on every feature and your screen reader testing becomes reliable, not lucky.

Why follow the same fixed steps on every screen reader pass?

Read the top, scan headings and landmarks, Tab through controls, work the forms, and log failures. A steady test pass catches real bugs. 🎉
